We were so happy to have Bob and Tracy Eggett to prepare our US back tax returns. They were very professional and reasonably priced. The new owners have been "working" on 3 years of returns for us over the last 3 years. I have spoken to the new owner who prepares the taxes many times. I have also talked to his support staff many many times. Nothing has been done and they give me excuses every time I call. I would tell anyone who needs to file a US return to find someone else. This is the worst service I have ever received from a company! Avoid at all costs.

I went to Eggert for about 3-4 years when owned by Robert Eggert. They should have sent out a notice of change of ownership. I made an appointment for 3pm and showed up at 2:50 and was put in the que. i waited till 4:50 and never had anyone tell me it would be so long. The new owners were coming back and forth and they were working but eventually I picked up my paperwork and went somewhere else. I had my taxes done the same day by 6:30. It took 20 minutes. There were no apologies or anything offered while waiting. Service is not as it use to be. Even if they had called to rebook I would have

I am Canadian living abroad, and have been renting out my house in Canada through a property management company. I file my income tax return in my country of residence, but found I needed to file non-resident returns for my rental income with CRA. On a visit to Canada, I was referred to Eggett Tax services, and was very pleased with their friendly informative and efficient service. Some time had passed before this, and I had three returns to do. After filing, I got a letter from CRA warning me of the consequences of filing late, and a confusing paragraph suggested that they might be withholding

My family has filed with Bob Eggett for years and loved him. He was very savvy and explained things thoroughly, and his small business team was always great in coaching me with small business finances. Since the new owners took over, however, it's an absolute Sh$!* show. Documents have gone missing, returns were not processed correctly, installments were not set up properly, and there was NO COMMUNICATION from the office. Like NONE. I tried calling, emailing, faxing - short of walking in to reception and demanding to speak with someone I had no idea what was going on. And they took ZERO accountability

I have been a client along with my family, for years! Even with the recent change of ownership, Eggett Tax Services offers excellent, speedy turnaround on doing tax returns for a very reasonable price, as well as outstanding customer service as well. Thank you today to Petar for the very quick response to my request. I felt valued as a client and am always impressed with the professional care and service, as always.

I used them for about 5 years when Bob was there and I had no complaints. I was upset that we were not notified of the ownership change the next time I went in to do my taxes. I also have US taxes and had come to an agreement for them but they never completed them. I called multiple times, emailed multiple times as well as I walked in one day - nothing! Please see so many of the reviews that discuss the lack of response from the new ownership as it is true. Their service is not anywhere near as good as it was under Bob's ownership.

I have been coming here for years while Bob ran the place. I came this year and now trying to give the new people there the benefit of the doubt filed my taxes with them. BIG mistake! The person who spoke to us first could barley use the system and we watched in agony as he single finger typed our info in, stopped to ask his helper every few seconds where to click. When we asked a tax question to the lady helping him (he was not going to be any help) she said she only knows taxes in Quebec and that our tax rules are not the same so she cannot answer my question. When the actual person came to
